Kimchi industry in Korea has grown rapidly with the increasing domestic and overseas demand of Kimchi. Currently, there is an increase trend of consuming the commercial Kimchi products, although the Kimchi consumption/adult/year is decreasing (36.6 kg in 2018). The amount of commercial Kimchi consumption in 2018 was 757,000 M/T (metric ton), out of 1,892,000 M/T of the estimated total consumption, and the size of Kimchi market was estimated to be 1,398 billion wons. In 2019, 29,628 M/T of Kimchi was exported to 78 countries, and 306,047 M/T was imported, mainly from China. In the future, for the technological upgrading of Kimchi plants, a large capital investment to the production of commercial Kimchi will be required. The accelerated glocalization of Kimchi will bring a steady increase in Kimchi export. Moreover, with the development of global Kimchi culture, the values and images of Korean national brand can be greatly improved.

The survey was conducted to investigate the consumption aspects of commercial kimchi and the future pattern of kimchi consumption. The college students(473) were randomly selected from six universities in Taejon. Ninety seven percent of students had taken the commercial kimchi. They chose kimchi manufactured by the famous company(62.4%), merchant in market(16.9%), and agricultural corporation(14.4%). In purchasing the commercial kimchi, qualty(76.0%) was considered as the most important factor and then price(13.1%), brand name(5.1%). The main reason for disliking commercial kimchi was indicated as 'different taste from home-made' by the male and 'additives added in kimchi' by the female(p<0.01). The maintenance of aging condition was believed the most essential factor to increase the consumption of commercial kimchi. Two thirds of the subjects anticipated to take home-made kimchi after marriage. Half of them replied to want to take kimchi made by traditional method, even though to buy the sauce for kimchi-making sold in market. More female students were willing to purcase the sauce for kimchi-making than the male(p<0.01).

In order to develop and propagate the low sodium kimchi for preventing high sodium related diseases, the salinity, pH and acidity of cabbage(Bachu) kimchi sampled from home located in 6 big cities(Pusan, Daegoo, Kyungjoo, Daegoo, Jeonjoo, Daejeon, and Seoul) and commercial 6 manufacturers(A~F) distributed in markets were monitored and analyzed in the current study. Salinity was significantly (p<0.05) higher in homemade($3.03%{\pm}0.60$: 1.79~4.40) kimchi than in commercial($2.38%{\pm}0.60$:1.04~2.87) kimchi. Also, salinity was significantly(p<0.05) higher in Pusan($3.45{\pm}0.60%$) kimchi than in Kyungjoo($3.11{\pm}0.39$), Daegoo($3.19{\pm}0.42$), Jeonjoo($2.98{\pm}0.32$), Daejeon($3.00{\pm}0.38$) and Seoul ($2.52{\pm}0.46%$) kimchi. However, there was no significant difference(p<0.05) of salinity in 6 kinds of commercial kimchi. Related to this result, pH of kimchi from homemade and commercial was $4.40{\pm}0.29$(3.72~6.03) and $5.45{\pm}0.76$ (4.23~6.35), acidity of kimchi from homemade and commercial were $0.99{\pm}0.30%$(0.28~2.17) and $0.45{\pm}023$(0.17~0.93), respectively. Thus, the current study provides evidence that we may need to manufacture the low sodium kimchi because all homemade kimchi, especially Pusan and Daegoo kimchi and commercial brand kimchi contained over 2% salinity.
